Repotting Tools and Growing Mediums
Prepare, refresh, and work through your next repotting project with our range of repotting tools and growing mediums. Whether you are loosening a bonsai root ball, selecting an orchid substrate, or refreshing a succulent mix, these materials and tools help you manage each stage with care and precision.
What's Included
- Ready-Blended Growing Mediums – general and professional bonsai mixes, premium conifer and deciduous blends, seedling mix, treated orchid bark, and specialist mixes for succulents, carnivorous plants and Nepenthes
- Individual Substrates – Japanese akadama, Hyuga pumice, lava stone and Kanuma, alongside sphagnum moss, crushed LECA, perlite, vermiculite, peat, coir and AgriCarb for tailoring a mix to your plants and growing conditions
- Root Hooks, Picks and Rakes – wooden-handled root hooks, aluminium and stainless steel root picks, and combination rakes for loosening roots and working out old growing medium
- Root Cutting and Pot Release – Kaneshin root cutters in several sizes for root pruning, high-carbon steel pruning scissors, and a Hounen repotting sickle for releasing container-bound root balls
- Sieves, Scoops and Drainage Mesh – a three-piece soil sieve for grading growing medium, plastic and stainless steel scoop sets for filling pots, and drainage mesh sheets and rolls to cover drainage holes while retaining the mix
- Watering and Finishing Tools – watering cans, fine-spray wands, sprayers and a small bonsai broom for watering and tidying after repotting, plus Kelpak plant growth regulator for use according to its directions
For bonsai hobbyists and specialist plant growers alike, these supplies help make repotting a well-prepared task. Assess each plant's need for repotting and choose the timing, root work and growing medium to suit its species, condition and your local climate rather than following a fixed schedule.
